Intended or not, she started a trend:⚡ #Democrats seizing on base anger to wage Sen primaries in 2026.

david hogg was ridden out on a rail for suggesting this but i'm all for it. let's stop sending the usual suspects back to DC. i want new ideas and real energy from my representatives.
in reply to Paul_IPv6

@Paul_IPv6 @Kim Perales Yeah, I am so disgusted with the top brass at the DNC, their refusal to change and their stubbornness to listen to voters is why Trump won again. They are stale and tone deaf. Replace em all this primary with actual progressives finally.

Neon claims it records calls with other Neon users.

This implies it does not record calls with non-Neon users.

But how do we know?

Apple's new call recording feature announces the recording and periodically sounds a chime. I've been using it with some financial related calls lately.

But obviously this is voluntary.

Do I, now, have to ask the other person if they're using Neon to record the call? What if they lie? What are even my legal protections? What about states with all party consent?

in reply to BedastGPT

Well, obviously they could just be lying, but I'd presume that Neon hooks into whatever call api each platform uses, gets the incoming or outgoing phone number, checks if it's in their database of users, and then enables or disables recording.
in reply to Cheerios de Bergerac

@sexybenfranklin I suspect it could be done with metadata exchange through whatever calling app they put in place, or whatever. It's certainly possible to make it work this way.

But these AI companies have done some shitty things to get their data.

I'm seeing if I can find their policy on recordings. If it's in actual documented policy and they violate it, that could actually get them in legal trouble.

NORAD intercepted two Russian Tu-95 bombers and two Su-35s flying in the Alaskan ADIZ on Sept 24. Four F-16s and an E-3 were scrambled. Planes stayed in international airspace, but it’s another routine reminder: Russia keeps testing the edge.



Lot of provocation from Russia lately. There have been Russian airspace violations in Poland, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Lithuania, Latvia, and Romania - all in September.
